5.00This town is amazing. This city has the most variety of culinary offerings in the world - the remarkable pinxtos!. The old town is situated on a small peninsula with century old buildings oozing with charm as well has great food. September seems to always have perfect weather (and fewer visitors) and I'm going back next September for my third visit.
Great few hours spent...

More of a bar crawl than a culinary experience

4.00The entire tour is walking and standing. Not a lot of food or wine. Just tastes of cider and two wines. No beer. Lots of info and history about the. Basque Country. Our guide was very informative. More of a bar crawl than a culinary experience.
